Your investments in kitchen sinks should do fine, Purdie, and may you never come to rely entirely on your Swiss or Canadian pension.

Now, I&#039;m sure your savings are not in collapsing fiat currencies or treasury bonds, but stuffing a garage with kitchen sinks would be a sound way of saving in durable commodities.]]></description>

If he did not want people to judge him he shouldn&#039;t have started a blog.

You are judging me too but that&#039;s OK. My surname is not Costa though and I do not sing or write music.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[One of the reasons why the P.N. has lost the support of the majority is surely Franco.

Not because of what he did and is still doing but because many P.N supporters ask, how come Franco was so popular and now he is what he is?

Who made the mistake of accepting him as a candidate in the first place? What makes us so sure that there are no  more Francos in the P.N.?

Could this be the reason why the party is in such a mess?

Could it be the party is appeasing the other Francos, which might be the reason why the P.N. has so many arrogant and unthouchable officials. No need to name them.

You can change the Francos to Pullicino Orlandos.

How could they have fooled the party all this time? 

Or was is that we were in the same position of accepting anybody in the same way you accuse the P.L of accepting anybody in their skip?

They are accused of being mental cases and I don&#039;t know what else, but if so they must have been like this from the beginning  but the P.N. needed them and anything goes as long as the party wins. 

A good example is Pullicino Orlando. If Sant knew about he was up to at Mistra, is it possible the P.N. didn&#039;t?  

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - It is not only possible, it is fact that the PN found out from Alfred Sant. That much would have been obvious to you if you had read the transcript of Gordon Pisani&#039;s telephone conversation with Pullicino Orlando. I happen to know for a fact that nobody in the Nationalist Party knew.]&lt;/strong&gt;

Why did they convince us to vote for this corrupt candidate?

					<description><![CDATA[Enough of Franco Debono&#039;s blog. He&#039;s tedious, repetitive and boring. 

He can&#039;t string two words together without making some grammatical mistake or other. He&#039;s a nobody.

I know he&#039;s threatening not to vote with the government but well, can we do anything about it? 

Life will go on, we&#039;ll have a Labour government and true, a national crisis to go with it, but really that&#039;s all. (Oh f***!)]]></description>
